"[T]he spirit and the soul of Adam, when they were attached to the human world, passed from the world of freedom into the world of bondage...attachment of the soul and spirit to the human world, which is sin, was inherited by the descendants of Adam, and is the serpent which is always in the midst of, and at enmity with, the spirits and the descendants of Adam...It is because of this attachment that men have been deprived of essential spirituality and exalted position."
